Hello, I am glad to greet you on my page! My name is Denis, I am from Nikel, Murmansk region in Russia. I have an interest in infographics that visualizes bigger amount of data that we usually used to see on the infographic pictures. I call it "mapographics".

Here are some of my mapographics. On this page I present works designed to be printed on a paper or put as an image on the site page. Some of them are made for various newspapers. Others to be printed standalone and then handed out.

Perhaps you would like to have a map of your location for tourists, a map telling news, map showing statistics? Or it is "how-to-get" chart in your mind? Or even timeline with important events?

In this case you can send a message to me: and I will be glad to materialize your vision on the paper or in the web. Also visit my blog about data visualization: complexpicture.com
